Short description: International non-government organization

The International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS) is a worldwide institution, established as an international forum for individual national aeronautical professional associations.

History

It was formed on 29 January 1957 at a conference in the US.[1] The first ICAS Congress was held in Spain in 1958. Frank Wattendorf, of AGARD, was the first Director.

A second meeting was held in Paris, with Hugh Latimer Dryden of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, and representatives from ONERA (Office National d'Etudes et de Recherches Aérospatiales), the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), the WGL (now the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Luft- und Raumfahrt), the Association Française des Ingénieurs et Techniciens de l'Aéronautique (now the Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France), and the Aeronautical Research Institute of Sweden.
